Sign on the Trans-Canada Highway near Winnipeg, marking the longitude centre of Canada. There is a sign on the Trans-Canada Highway at 96°48'35"W (slightly east of Winnipeg) proclaiming it the longitudinal centre of Canada; [1] in effect, the north-south line midway between the extreme points of Canada on the east and west, including islands (including Newfoundland since 1949).
the mean center, also known as the centroid or center of gravity; the median center, which is the intersection of the median longitude and median latitude; the geometric median, also known as Weber point, Fermat–Weber point, or point of minimum aggregate travel. A further complication is caused by the curved shape of the Earth.
Canada covers 9,984,670 km 2 (3,855,100 sq mi) and a panoply of various geoclimatic regions, of which there are seven main regions. [9] Canada also encompasses vast maritime terrain, with the world's longest coastline of 243,042 kilometres (151,019 mi). [20] The physical geography of Canada is widely varied.

Contents. Module:Location map/data/Canada Toronto. Module:Location map/data/Canada Toronto is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Toronto. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
The geographical centre of Earth is the geometric centre of all land surfaces on Earth. Geometrically defined it is the centroid of all land surfaces within the two dimensions of the Geoid surface which approximates the Earth's outer shape. The term centre of minimum distance [1] specifies the concept more precisely as the domain is the sphere ...
Module:Location map/data/Canada. Module:Location map/data/Canada is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on a Lambert conformal conic projection map of Canada. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
